All the tools you mentioned -- ResCicn 1.0b4, Resedit 1.0b2, and
ResColors 1.0 -- are guarenteed to crash on whatever Mac they are run on.
Especially ResEdit 1.0b2. But all versions you mentioned are out of date
and mutually incompatible. The good news is that updates (except for
ResEdit; you'll have to talk to Apple about that) are readily available
for free.

In order to use ResColors you MUST have:

  ResEdit 1.2.
  ResColors 1.0b8 or newer.
  32-bit QuickDraw (from Apple)

Please note that any "d", "a", or "b" versions of ResEdit are NOT
recommended.  Also many people falsely assume that, say, version 1.2d3
is a more current version of 1.2. This is incorrect. A version
designated 1.2d3 would be the 3rd development version on the way to
producing the final 1.2 product.

I have ResColors 1.0b10 available for anonymous ftp at my site.

        host name       ics.uci.edu
        host IP addr    128.195.1.1
        login           anonymous
        password        guest
        path            pub/mac/ResColors

Once again, you WILL need Apples Color Disk (32-bit QuickDraw) and
the release version of ResEdit (version 1.2). I had these at my
site, but the Apple Thought Police made me remove them. Silly.
They will GIVE them to you, but I can't give them to you. Even
though the tools are of NO USE to anyone who hasn't bought a Mac.
So, sadly, your on your own as far as digging up those.
